Pomegranate Lime Cooler

On a whim, my brother and I purchased a large bottle of Pomegranate syrup from the local Indian store. It's very sweet, very viscous, and has a beautiful, deep magenta hue. But what to do with it? We were at a  loss - until two days ago. Inspiration struck us on that hot, wet summer afternoon - and we came up with this refreshing Pomegranate Lime cooler. Enjoy!


Ingredients:
2 teaspoons pomegranate syrup
Juice from 5 small clementines or 2 large clementines
Juice from 1 large lime
3/4 cup ice 
1/3 cup water (estimate)

Method: In a blender, combine together all ingredients. Serve immediately!

Variations:
- Add 1 cup of watermelon to standard ingredients.
- Add 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream and 1/2 cup orange sherbet to make a creamy version of the cooler. Beware - this version is rather tart, so extra syrup may be required!
